Well i started to talk about double standards. When someone believes in aliens and all weird shit, they are crazy, but when one believes in god, its perfectly normal.

Well if you want a real answer, some religions have beliefs that they're connected to other places/stars in our galaxy. How much do you know about the Mormon faith?
Yeah Christian but no real denomination, I just believe in God and Jesus, ya know? :P And thank you
Why do I get this glitch whenever I reply to you? Lmao
"When used in non-scientific context, the word “theory” implies that something is unproven or speculative. As used in science, however, a theory is an explanation or model based on observation, experimentation, and reasoning, especially one that has been tested and confirmed as a general principle helping to explain and predict natural phenomena."
So is this good enough explanation so you would understand the difference?

Well that's not true. Religion has adapted many times to new information and cultural pressures. For instance it was not long ago that the C… moreatholic church rendered the statement that their view of extra terrestrial life had changed and that it wasn't impossible that life existed outside of Earth's.

I'll respond to that with a slightly comical remark.
When I was young I had an imaginary friend. He was always with me. I spoke to him, and he granted me wishes. And then I grew up, and I stopped going to church.
What changed was I started critically thinking for myself. I grew up in a Christian family. I was told that God did exist, not that he might. As a kid you listen to the ones who you view as the people who wouldn't lead you astray, my parents in this case. Now I realized that my parents weren't always correct, they weren't all knowing, and that I didn't agree about God's existence. I'd like to believe in a beautiful life after death, but it isn't that simple. Not so much that the bible doesn't physically make sense. I could (perhaps) look past the supernatural elements and impossibilities do to the laws of nature, but what I can over look is the cruel nature of the Christian (and others of course) God. The immoral, hate preaching, disgusting things that he does and makes his followers do. It's horrifying, and the fact that people would willingly love such an entity is honestly troubling. Not to speak badly of Christians, most are loving people (again, my entire family is Christian and I would give my life for any of them). They just don't comprehend the hatred their God praises.
Of course scientific theories have been wrong. Science bases its facts on the data available. If something new or contradicting shows up, theories are changed to describe that phenomenon properly.
Honestly I decided to go to Youtube and read the comments on this video.
The first comment is "Smart people sound like crazy people to dumb people."
I guess we are all dumb.
Exactly! I have no proof that what I believe in exists, and you don't have proof either, and until someone get's proof then you aren't right to call anyone ignorant because of what they believe in, it just makes you look more ignorant.

Humans and earth are treated as special and unique phenomenon in the bible, as if everything was centered around us. Contradicting this statement by saying that we arent that unique after all is like shooting yourself to the leg.
There are +200 billion galaxies and trillions of planets, I suppose even they had to admit theres a chance for life to exist out there.
Alright. I'll play the defense here. It could be so that the other planets were not God's chosen planets. By products of his divine power. The native inhabitants no more important to God than the worms crawling beneath the soil. It's not a shot to the leg to admit that life exists off of Earth, only to admit that those other life forms are God's chosen peoples.

Burden of proof is on positive claim. We use scientific method for a reason to determine if something is true or not.
With your logic, you could make any kind of claim and call others ignorant for not being able to disprove your invisible magical friend, which cannot be observed by any means.
Exactly! I have no proof that what I believe in exists, and you don't have proof either, and until someone get's proof then you aren't right to call anyone ignorant because of what they believe in, it just makes you look more ignorant.
But I don't remember saying I could call anyone ignorant based on their beliefs, actually if I remember correctly you're the one telling me I'm ignorant for believing in my "magical friend".
Please demonstrate how i can disprove negative.

I'm not here to tell you that you cannot believe in what you do - honestly, I respect everyone's feelings on religion. So I hope you don't take this the wrong way or feel like I am attacking your opinion.
However, I'm not sure what kind of cruelty you believe God has praised and preached? For us Christians, He is Love. He stopped a prostitute from being stoned to death (even when one of his commandments is to not commit adultery) for her choices and told others not to judge her when they themselves have made mistakes and sinned. He tells us to not lie, steal, kill, and to forgive not only the people we care about, but the people who hurt us.

Well either you both are crazy, or neither of you are. Who are you to judge someone's beliefs which are based on personal experience, since you do exactly the same?
Yet for some reason, religious people are considered normal? I sense double standards.
That's... incredibly offensive. I'm not normal because I'm religious?

I want to.... but I won't........
Its so hard to see who is replying to who now.
Did you listen to Laura talk about Chem Trails? Come on Man, lets be real bro.
She out of her mind.
I don't know, but I am completely convinced you have some kind of curse, I doubt this one will show up anyway :P
To be fair this didnt out talking about Mormonism, if it did I wouldnt ask that question.

Lol this lady is funny, I thought this was a legitimate thing and I was like whaaaaat? XD
That much can be agreed to by everyone.
She is. She is one of the "ancient alien." people i enjoy watching, her theories make laugh.
Its not really her fault that her understanding of reality is so fucked up.
Zyke is right on this.
This is the internet, after all.
Such a wonderful place.
I know. It's just a big grey blob at this point. Lmao
Well they are kinda shooting themselves in the leg by making that statement.
Yet scientific theories have never been wrong too right? No, they can be proven wrong which isn't proof enough.

Hey Zyke, I think its time for you to just go, they aren't listening, you're wasting your own time.
Your right...
DR PHIL We Need you!
Basically Laura Eisenhower believes that we are being controlled by Dinosaur aliens from the planet Chip's Ahoy.

If aliens exist and they will visit us, I CANT wait till religious people tell them that!

Why would god create intelligent life out there and decide that they are irrelevant?
